    burned 785 calories yesterday doing Pilates, Belly dance, weight training and some random kickboxing stuff from exercise tv. It was my first time doing pilates and probably my last until I get a lot thinner.

    I burned 411 riding my bike today however I feel it may be more since I have my 30 lb son in his bike seat . I also went for a twenty minute walk and played at the park. I really need to invest in a htm so I know my total cal. Burn.
    Way to go everyone! What a great challenge.

    One more day for this challenge after today and today I burned 552 cals!

    Total calories burned for this challenge: 3037/3500

    Doing this challenge I've learned how important it is for me to feel I have to "check in" with someone. That even though I haven't made any friends on this challenge, I somehow felt like I had to keep doing it for me and others to keep motivated. And that alone helped. I'm not sure I would have pushed myself yesterday, for example, after my day off, when I felt very lazy and un-inspired. But then I saw this thread under "my topics" and said - I have to have something to post! So get off your *kitten* and do a dvd workout! And so, I did. And afterwards, I was so freakin pleased with myself.

    PARTCHO that is a heck of a cute pup in your photo!

    Day 5...total burn 438..

    So that makes a total of 2119/3500 in the last 7 days. I only made it past 500 on two of the days, but that's more than usual for me!

    Thanks Bobbi for setting this challenge!

    Hmm what have I learned...it's kind of fun to do challenges like this! I also overestimated the time I would have available this week, as I was starting a new job & couldn't get to the gym or spend as long there as usual (I've got some new exercise dvds just arrived so hopefully will be able to fit in a good workout on the days I can't get to the gym).

    I learned that even if I can't make the 500, it's worthwhile trying, and giving myself something to aim for! On the days where I did have the time, I did push myself a bit harder to get to 500 so I did burn more :)

    ok so last night i went out to celebrate a friend of mine who is no longer working with me. i created an event on FB expected just a few people and was pleasantly surprised to find a bunch showed up! i drank a bit but i also did some dancing and logged that on the site via what is listed. i didn't wear the HRM so it is an estimation of 673 calories burned in 1 hour of dancing! :D

    this was my last day for the challenge and the biggest thing it has taught me is no matter how i feel before the work out i know i'll feel amazing after. >:)

    hah @ my lil evil happy face.

    anyway i <3 all of you so much and your support was integral to meeting and exceeding my goal. :) i burned a total of 4732 calories in 7 days. :D thats huge for me.

    i hope you all experience the same and we should totally do this again. :p
